A black-power Momentum activist has been suspended from Labour after saying that Zionists were “involved with Nazis” and that Labour was “seeking to curry favour with… the pro-Zionist lobby in and beyond the media”.

Marlene Ellis, the chief executive of Momentum Black ConneXions (MBC) published an open letter to Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn calling former London mayor Ken Livingstone’s own suspension “an outrage,” after he said Hitler was a Zionist.

Addressing Corbyn, Ellis wrote: “It is our belief that your statement… plays right into the hands of Zionist criminals.”
